Second Step Yer whiskers are oiled, so come on now and start yer shave. POPEYE Shave Creams are second to none. Ours is a proprietary, Sandalwood, a Non-lathering & Non-foaming formula and a little goes a long way. Benefits: Far less drying to skin than Lathering shave creams and protects against skin irritation and skin roughness. Whereas lathering shave creams are soap based, which have higher pH levels which means dry, irritated skin after shaving, especially those with sensitive skin, acne prone skin and those prone to razor bumps.
